METAL MONoPoLISTS.

Attempt to Corner Copper -Unusual tx.
citcment i'm the Metal Market.
New YORK. Dec. ia Boston dispatch
yesterday stated that an Eastern metal
firm had offered to take the entire produc-
tlon OF all the copper mines in this country,
except the Calumet and Hecla-just now
nou-productive on account OF fire-for the
ensuing year, at 15l9c per pound. 1t is
thought here that no mining company
would entertain such proposition In view
of the present price of copper.
Tin was strong yesterday. Copper very
strong and gradually advancing. Closing
prices were for Lake ingct copper--l615c
for spot: December deliveries, L. 1Jc. and
February, March and April, III. soc bud and
no sellers. Even 11c was offered for tho
latter future and refused. In London the
market continued its upward movement
for Chill bars, and closed last night with a
large business doing at the highest point it
has reached In many years. In fact, since
the great boom of 1878 Chilli bars have
rot been so high as they closed lastanght-
Ell los spot and s.2 Is futures. There
were plenty of buyers thereat, but no sell
ers The syndicate apparently intends
buying every ton oil copper until tae mar
ket prices reach fSJ ton.
The extraordinary advance in iron in
Glasgow during the last three days-5s
per ton, or from II TO ID per cent--has,
according to private cables, had the eject
of rousing The speculative spirit to an ex-
fraordinary pitch on the other side. New
York metal men say the excitement in the
European iron market is naturally having
q great effect upon all subsidiary metals
over the whole world. The Official dis
patch TO the New York Exchange from
Philadelphia said that iron prices were no
lower but were firm, and that it was hard
to say what might be accepted unGer
firm offer; that there was only small
hand -to-mou,h business for such lots as are
required at once. 1t has been rumored on
Change for several days that the French
syndicate had taken hold of iron. To this
3 attributed the furry in the European
iron market. Traced to its original source
The report was started by metal dealer
who could not keep in the market since the
gigantic operations Of the French syndi-
date. So far as known the syndicate has
not gone into IRON. The failure of Arm
strong Bros, large iron dealers in Glasgow,
was reported upon Change yesterday.
